This just in - mark November 3rd off in your calendar.

For our Canadian friends, we're very excited to announce that you can pick up our film on Nov 3rd at Wal-Mart, Blockbuster, HMV, Rogers and Best Buy, to name a few stores that will carry it.

The film will be up on i-tunes on November 3rd as well, for sale and for rent!!!

If you're reading this, you're most likely a DYFAM blog subscriber, and as such, if you've followed some of the behind-the-scenes stories we've told already (and will continue to tell) you're on the "inside" and will enjoy our film that much more as you know some of the trials and tribulations we had previous to where our journey starts in the documentary. If you haven't read since our first posting, go back and read from the beginning :) It will make the documentary a much different experience and answers questions about us you might be asking.

Welcome to our blog.

Until the film is available for you to purchase (stay tuned for when&where you can get it), we'll be updating this blog weekly with a start to finish recounting of our trials and tribulations making the film, interview clips that didn't make the final cut, pictures, links, and songs from our amazing indie soundtrack.

SYNOPSIS

How did John Hughes capture the growing pains of adolescence so perfectly? Why do his films resonate with those that grew up with them, and those that have just discovered them? Why did he leave?

Armed with those and many other questions, a documentary was put into production. It wasn't long before interviews with Hughes alumni and those influenced by Hughes transpired, shedding light on Hughes and his work. However, after 2 years of compiling hundreds of interviews there was still a very important one missing: John Hughes'.

So the neophyte documentary crew hit the road to his hometown, documenting their journey, the approach they would take and their personal connections to his films.

DON'T YOU FORGET ABOUT ME cuts insightful and entertaining interviews with the honest, humorous, and tension filled road trip the filmmakers go on, hoping to find John Hughes and secure an interview with the reclusive director and closure for themselves.
